Granted: 2005-11-29
Abstract: Pour fabriquer une vitre de verre feuilleté (10) capable de réfléchir les rayonnements infrarouges, on utilisera un stratifié (3) constitué d'une part d'une feuille porteuse (4), elle-même pourvue d'une couche superficielle (5) réfléchissant les infrarouges, et d'autre part, de deux couches thermoplastiques extérieures (6, 7). On découpera dans ce stratifié (3) une plaque correspondant à la forme des feuilles de verre 1 et 2 mais plus courte de quelques millimètres sur les bords. Puis, en vidant l'air présent entre le stratifié (3) et les feuilles de verre (1, 2), on obtiendra un feuilleté préliminaire à partir de cette même surface de stratifié (3) et de ces deux mêmes feuilles (1, 2), un interstice (12), qui ferait le tour des bords, subsistant entre les deux feuilles de verre 1 et 2 et la tranche du stratifié 3. Cet interstice de bord (12) du feuilleté préliminaire sera rempli par injection d'une matière fondue constituée du même matériau thermoplastique que celui dont sont faites les couches extérieures du stratifié. Ensuite, un procédé d'autoclavage permettra de joindre définitivement entre elles les différentes couches.

Title: Variable speed transmission and transaxle
Inventor: JOLLIFF NORMAN E
IPC: F16H3/72
Filed: 1997-07-25
Granted: 2000-06-06
Abstract: A variable speed transmission or transaxle that utilizes a pump for variable braking of the output shaft or axle. A rotatable input shaft connectable to a drive source extends into a transmission housing and is operatively connected to a gear train that transmits rotational power to a transmission output shaft. A gerotor pump mounted within the housing utilizes a ring gear of an epicyclic gear of the gear train as an inner gerotor gear that meshes with an outer gerotor gear to pump fluid along a fluid conduit. By adjustably varying the resistance of the pump, the revolution rate of the epicyclic ring gear is adjusted which in turn results in a controlling of the speed of rotation of the transmission output shaft. In an alternate embodiment, a reversible transmission is provided by employing two gerotor pumps and two gear trains which allow forward and reverse speeds of rotation of the output shaft to be variably controlled.

Title: Method for promoting ovulation, parturition, and lactation in mammals
Inventor: CROSS DEE L
IPC: A61K31/445
Filed: 1997-12-16
Granted: 2006-10-10
Abstract: The present invention generally relates to various methods for promoting ovulation, parturition and lactation in female mammals. These benefits are obtained by administering to the mammals a composition containing a D2 receptor antagonist that does not substantially cross the blood brain barrier. In one embodiment, the D2 receptor antagonist is domperidone.      The domperidone can be administered to the mammal either orally or subcutaneously and can be used to treat, for instance, anestrous mammals, mammals that have problems bearing offspring and mammals suffering from agalactia. Unexpectedly, it has also been discovered that the D2 receptor antagonist may also stimulate feed intake, causing the mammal to eat more and gain weight faster.

Title: Method and apparatus in a radio messaging system for forming a current frame of data while maintaining a correct transmission order for numbered messages
Inventor: COUTS JEFFREY D
IPC: H04W88/18
Filed: 1998-04-22
Granted: 2000-07-18
Abstract: A processor (208) selects a candidate message (214) from a message queue (212), and tests (306) whether an available space (216) in the current frame of data is sufficient to accommodate the candidate message. The processor records (320, 420) a skip indicator (218, 220) into a predetermined memory location, in response to the candidate message being a numbered message and the available space in the current frame being insufficient. The processor skips (316) the candidate message during the current frame even though available space is sufficient, when the skip indicator is recorded in the predetermined memory location and is applicable to the candidate message. The processor adds (332) the candidate message to the current frame of data, when the available space in the current frame is sufficient and the candidate message is a message not affected by the skip indicator. The processor continues (330) to select, test, record, skip, and add, as above, to form the current frame of data.

Title: Parallel file system and method using tokens and metadata nodes
Inventor: KANDADAI RADHA R
IPC: G6 F15/167
Filed: 1998-07-09
Granted: 2004-09-07
Abstract: A computer system having a shared disk file system running on multiple computers each having their own instance of an operating system and being coupled for parallel data sharing access to files residing on network attached shared disks. Methods are provided for use as a parallel file system in a shared disk environment by use of a scalable directory service for the system with a stable cursor, a segmented allocation map. Dynamic prefetch and cached balance pools for multiple accesses improve the system. Extended file attributes and attribute value sharing are used for implementation of access control lists in a parallel file system. A metadata node manages file metadata for parallel read and write actions. For our system, tokens are used for metadata node selection and identification. Enhanced token modes for controlling file size, as well as smart caching of byte range tokens using file access patterns and a byte range lock algorithm using a byte range token interface are provided. Locking techniques reduce the overhead of a token manager which is also used in the file system recovery if a computer participating in the management of shared disks becomes unavailable or failed. Synchronous and asynchronous takeover of a metadata node occurs for correction of metadata which was under modification. Locks are not constantly required to allocate new blocks on behalf of a user. Recoverable local shares for quota management are provided. A quota server and a quota client are provided for each file system, and a quotacheck utility allows parallel environments with minimal interference to other applications which require the use of quotas.
